Deflarian Communications Post

OnALegendsArticle

"It is time for answers. I am sending you the location of a communications post the Deflarians use. Head over there and investigate."
―Sinis, to a spacer[1]

The Deflarian Communications Post was a camp used by the criminal organization known as the Deflarians on the planet Corellia, near the city of Tyrena, during the Galactic Civil War.[1] In 1 ABY,[2] a ship carrying medical equipment for the merchant Sinis apparently crashed near Tyrena. Sinis thus recruited a spacer to investigate the ship crash site and retrieve some equipment. The spacer spotted several Deflarian scavengers while they were placing a modified flight recorder in the wreckage. The spacer later assaulted the Deflarian Communications Post to find information about the involvement of the Deflarians in the crash. This allowed the spaced to find the location of another Deflarian camp and eventually retrieve Sinis's medical equipment.[1]

Behind the scenes

The Deflarian Communications Post appeared in the 2003 video game Star Wars Galaxies, a massively multiplayer online roleplaying game developed by Sony Online Entertainment and published by LucasArts,[1] prior to its closure on December 15, 2011.[3] The Deflarian Communications Post was added to the game with the release of the "Publish 28," on April 26, 2006.[4]

Notes and references

  1. ↑ 1.0 1.1 1.2 1.3 1.4 1.5 SWG logo sm Star Wars Galaxies (post-NGE) — Legacy Quest: "Crash and Burn" on Corellia
  2. ↑ The opening crawl of Star Wars Galaxies: An Empire Divided dates the game to after the events of Star Wars: Episode IV A New Hope, and additionally, Serji-X Arrogantus, who died in Star Wars (1977) 10—the events of which The New Essential Chronology dates to 0 ABY—appears in the game. Therefore, at least a portion of Star Wars Galaxies must be set in that year. Furthermore, in the game Ruwan Tokai references the destruction of the Death Star as having occurred one year earlier, and Strongholds of Resistance also places the events of Galaxies' Chapter 9: "The Fury of Exar Kun" in 1 ABY. Lastly, while Chapter 11: "The Battle of Echo Base" features the Battle of Hoth—dated to 3 ABY by The New Essential Chronology—the developers have stated that the portrayal of that battle in the game is intentionally anachronistic. Therefore, the events of Star Wars Galaxies must span from 0 ABY to around 1 ABY.
